Former Making The Band star Sara Stokes tried her hand at reality television again recently, this time on Queen Latifah’s From The Bottom Up on BET. Unfortunately for Sara, she feels she was portrayed in a negative light, and now she’s suing BET Networks over it. Sara claims Latifah’s company approached her while she was in jail for domestic violence some time ago, and told her that she could appear on From The Bottom Up and make the public see her side of the story. However, when the show aired, she says they referred to her as a “man beater,” and her legal team now plans to sue BET for damaging Sara’s image for its own commercial gain.

Chris Brown Slammed With Lawsuit Over Alleged Las Vegas Attack
In case you missed it, at the top of the year Chris Brown was accused by crazy lady, Liziane Gutierrez, of punching her in the face and kicking her out of a Las Vegas party. Breezy and Gutierrez went at it via social media; him calling her an “old bitch” and her telling him to be a better person in a video with no sign of injury. Now, Gutierrez is taking further legal action and has just filed a lawsuit against, Chris Brown in Clark County, Nevada. She claims (again), that someone in Breezy’s camp or possibly Chris himself, hit her in the “face and/or arm and/or hands.” She also claims they took her phone. Vegas police previously investigated Gutierrez’s claim and said that there just wasn’t enough evidence and decided to completely drop the case, so there’s a pretty good chance the lawsuit will get thrown out the same way. Guiterrez has proven to be a groupie, looking for a hand out in the past, as she’s the same woman who caused drama for Jason Derulo when he didn’t allow her to get into his party bus after the club back in August.

Die hard Wu-Tang Clan fan Jason Koza has slammed Martin Shkreli and RZA with a lawsuit after his artwork landed in the $2 million one-of-a-kind album, “Once Upon a Time in Shaolin.” Koza claims he entered nine of his hand drawn portraits the Wu-Tang members to be posted on a site called Wu Disciples. He was delighted when Wu-Tang’s producer Cilvaringz contacted him back in 2014 to say he was working on the “Once Upon a Time in Shaolin” record. Koza claims following that conversation he never heard from anyone in Wu-Tang’s camp again, but was disturbed to find out that the rare album included a leather-bound book with copies of his drawings. Following the sale of the album, where Martin Shkreli picked it up for $2 million, three of his original drawings wound up in a January article of Vice. Koza feels like he’s been jerked around and now is looking for Shkreli, RZA and Cilvaringz to pay up. Click the gallery for photos
